With the 2011 season of the Premiere Hoops Fantasy League set to begin in less than a month, the Chicago Bulls began their quest for it’s first championship run by opening training camp at the McCook Expo! The big box sports complex holds several large soccer fields and a total of 6 basketball courts inside! The Bulls looked happy to be on the court, once again, prepping to change the misfortunes of the past several losing seasons! Veterans Randy Kimbrough and Robin Locke, the Blackburn Boys, looked surprisingly good for the first practice! Especially during scrimmage games where they both showed ranged with outside jump shots! Second year starter DC, Darrick Carter, showed up in mid-season form, displaying great conditioning, and a knack for finding the ball on both ends of the court!
Bulls rookie Antoine Jackson will look to make a major impact on the squad! The young grasshopper was able to attack the rim at will! Looks to be a good fit with the team that should help the Bulls get more wins right away! Derrick Terrell is working his way back from sore knees! And the Commissioner Bill Leach looked winded but held his own! We got additional help from “retired” Bulls player Ken Hoover! Special thanks to the young guns who were already at the Mccook playing ball and decided to scrimmage against us! We all broke a good sweat while working on our old defense and a new offense!
Lot’s of work ahead, but we’re off to a very positive start! Next weekend we’ll look to add in the mix Mike Jackson, Reggie Terrell, and Pierre Monagan! Word of the Bulls training camp is getting around as other potential Fantasy League teams are calling to inquire about possible scrimmages! Next practice is set for this Saturday, October 8! The early-bird session will run from 7AM to 9 AM. Contact the League Office if your squad would like to be a part!
